The Islamisation of Rome: A shocking comparison between 1950 and 2010

...

There was no mass Islamic migration to Italy until the late 1980s. Since the country changed its migration policy in 1981, the number of migrants doubled from 321,000 to 625,000 (1.1 per cent of the population) in just 10 years.

Since then, migration increased dramatically and in January 2016, more than 5 million foreigners are living in Italy, or about 8.4 per cent.

Almost one-third of them are Muslim and the number of them increased by 130 per cent between 1999 and 2009.

The Italians have a lot of fight, I think in the long run, they will rescue their country.

Of course part of me thinks it's just desserts for what they did in Ethiopia in the 1930s.

The Eritreans helped the Italians. The Eritreans recall the Italians and their Colonization positively.

Now, Eritrea has gotten some very bad freedom ratings, ranking with North Korea but once, I found this site years ago.

Italian architecture in Eritrea


Italian Military Cemetery in Eritrea, kept amazingly pristine.

I have no idea how it is now per their government, one of their recent presidents said colonization was good for the country, very much the opposite view as Ethiopia.



Suffice it to say, it doesn't appear everyone there hated the Italians, they had a war there in the 1900s or 1910s, failed but went back when Mussolini came into power.  Might have been Libya. I'lll have to read up on that.
